🍽 Ingredients (serves approximately 8–10)

• 1 cup Buffalo-style hot sauce (like Frank’s RedHot)
  
  

• 8 oz cream cheese, softened

🔪 Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
   
   

2. Heat chicken and sauce: In an oven-safe skillet, combine the shredded chicken and Buffalo hot sauce. Warm over medium heat for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
   
   

3. Add cream cheese and ranch: Stir in the cream cheese and ranch dressing until the mixture is smooth and fully melted.
   
   

4. Stir in cheese: Remove from heat and stir in half of the cheddar and Colby–Monterey Jack cheese until evenly combined.
   
   

5. Bake: Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 15–20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the dip is bubbling around the edges.
   
   

6. Serve: Let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
